Mansfield officials complied with the 'pothole haters' tax

In 2009 voters in the City of Mansfield renewed a quarter of a percent income tax designated solely for street and park road resurfacing. Private citizens have performed an independent audit every year to assure ourselves of the City's compliance with this tax.

Our audit involves reviewing the bids for street improvement work, the contracts for that work, the testing of the work and the collection and reporting of income generated by the tax. We jointly performed the audit for the years 2008 through 2012.

We found the City to be in full compliance with the terms of the "pothole haters' tax." We thank the Mayor, the Auditor, Mansfield City Council and the City Engineering Department for living up to both the spirit and the letter of this street improvement tax.
